Notes

  1. Despite an increase in market share, watch sales declined due to trade downstocking and macro-economic conditions. While sales of Jewellery to Tanishq boutiques were at last year's level, boutique sales to customers rose by over 40%.
  2. The first quarter results in the previous year included profit on sale of shares amounting to Rs.9.66 crores.
  3. Historically, the first half results are not an indication of full year performance. Sales and profit are skewed to the commencement of the festival and marriage seasons in subsequent quarters when trade purchases peak to meet consumer demand. This year the festive season commences well into the third quarter, almost one month later than in the previous year. Consequently sales in the current year are skewed more than normally so into the second half.
  4. Consequent to the new Accounting Standard AS 22 on 'Accounting for taxes on income' becoming mandatory effective 1st April 2001, the Company has accounted the deferred tax for the quarter and the half year ended 30th September 2001 and the same have been disclosed accordingly. The cumulative deferred tax liability of Rs.45.63 crores has been adjusted against the reserves as on 1st April 2001.
  5. The figures of the previous period have been regrouped/recast, where necessary.
  6. The above statement of financial results was taken on record by the Board of Directors at their meeting held on 31st October 2001.
